2. During the planning of a birthday party, it is decided that the souvenir will be enclosed in a 80 cm³ glass rectangular prism with square base. The glass to be used for the square bases (for the top and bottom faces) costs P5 per cm? and the glass to be used for the sides costs P4 per cm?. Find the dimensions of the glass rectangular prism that will minimize the cost of its construction.

A cylindrical chemical storage tank with a capacity of 950m’ is going to be constructed in a warehouse that is 11m by 14m with a height of 10m. The specifications call for the case to be made of sheet metal that costs $90/m², the top to be made from sheet metal that costs $45/m² and the wall to be made of sheet metal that costs $80/m². If you want to minimize the cost to make the storage house, how much would you end up spending to build the tank?
A farmer wants to fence in a rectangular plot of land adjacent to the north wall of his barn.

The City Council proposed to utilize a government-owned land with an area of 21,600 square meters. One-third of it will be used for a picnic area while the rest of the land will be planted by mango trees. As the city engineer, you were tasked to determine the following:1. the dimensions of the picnic area with minimum cost of fencing given that area is to be rectangular and to be fenced off on three sides not adjacent to the highway.2. the number of mango trees that leads to a maximum yield given that if 60 trees are planted, the average yield per tree will be 400 kilos while the average yield will decrease by 4 kilos per tree for each additional tree on the same area due to overcrowding. what is the illustration of variables, solution and conclusion?
A residential area will be built with a rectangular green space of two square meters, with paved walkways around the green room. The long-sided sidewalks of the green space are required to be three meters wide and the short side of the sidewalks four meters wide. How do we design the length and width of the green room to minimize the footprint of the paved walkways?
The City Council proposed to utilize a government-owned land with an area of 9,600 square meters. One-third of it will be used for a picnic area while the rest of the land will be planted by mango trees. As the city engineer, you were tasked to determine the following: the dimensions of the picnic area with minimum cost of fencing given that area is to be rectangular and to be fenced off on three sides not adjacent to the highway. 2. the number of mango trees that leads to a maximum yield given that if 70 trees are planted, the average yield per tree will be 300 kilos while the average yield will decrease by 3 kilos per tree for each additional tree on the same area due to overcrowding. As an Engineer, cite other instances aside from the situations given above where optimization (one minimization) can be applied.
Juan was asked to create a tarpaulin for the school program. Due to restrictions in the printing machine and the costs, the tarpaulin can only have 46.5 square inches of printed area. Holes for ropes were placed, in order to hang the tarpaulin. Because of these holes, there was a 0.1 meter margin at the top and bottom, and 0.05 meter margin on the sides. If the total area of the tarpaulin is minimized, what will be its dimensions?
